I saw on a board that Gratuity is no longer included unless otherwise indicated on the Dining plan. Is this true? I just want to make sure I have cash on me when I go.

Thanks
 
No it is not included any more. They did away with the appetizer and tip being included a year or so ago. They will print on the bottom of your receipt a suggest 18 and 20 percent tip - but you don't have to leave that if you don't feel the service was worth it.
 
also, if you're on the dining plan and you're going to do a cash tip, make sure you write CASH TIP on the tip line. We had a problem w/ a server at Sci-Fi who was in a "not so great mood" and was going to charge his tip to our room. So I made sure to write in CASH TIP from that point on......
 
Oh I didn't know about the appetizer either, bummer... Then again it was a lot of food. Thanks for the tip on writing down cash tip on the bill.

Thanks.
 

Correct...it is not included...last time we were there in 2006, the dining plan did not include the appetizer or the gratuity. And if you have a party of 6 or more, like we did since my parents were with us, they will add a mandatory 18%.
 
You don't have to leave cash for the tip. You can use a credit card or Disney Rewards/Gift card as well.
